Comment (by xkon):
If the idea is to change everything into a youtube-nocookie by default and
changing back to youtube needs manual edits or extra steps, I'm not
comfortable with that even as a privacy maintainer (if that counts).
It's up to the site owners to select if they want youtube vs youtube-
nocookie and then a different discussion starts, but practically it's
their choice and we have to respect that.
Optimally there should be an option for example when youtube urls are
identified with maybe a UI (simple select option) asking if they want to
convert it to a youtube-nocookie or something similar :) . We can't force
it though in my opinion.
Just my 2c.
